Duluth ALL Souls Night

Join us for our Duluth ALL Souls Night, on Saturday evening, November 7th, 2026. The evening begins at The Depot, 506 W. Michigan St. in Duluth, Minnesota.

Duluth ALL Souls Night (DASN) is a fall arts festival that has taken place in our Northern Minnesota city annually since 2008. It is intergenerational, multicultural, and multidisciplinary, nurturing expression from everyone as we recognize loss and embrace what is life-giving at the postharvest/pre-winter time of year when leaves have fallen and things look a bit bleak.
 
This night has consistently attracted people by acknowledging and transforming grief with displays, poetry, music, dance, and spectacle arts like giant puppets, aerialists, and fire spinning.

Join us in skeleton garb if you dare!
